he following tips are intended to supplement the Roman multiplayer tips. I won't be going into detail on the basics here. Scouting enemy territory, for example, is a must for all three races. The necessary adjustments in the goods menues can also be generalized.

All of the tips are based on a game with high resources.

The advantages of the Egypian Settlers:

their building materials are obtained quickly (stone)
their fighting strength is doubled by gems
divine intervention: bowmen to bordermen (bowmen become pioneers)
divine intervention: fish to meat

 

General Considerations ...

The Eqyptians have few advantages over the other races, but they are quite significant in the first minutes of the game. In contrast to playing the Romans or Asians, playing the Egyptians calls for a fast decision in order to exploit their advantages. When playing teams, the player with the Egyptians usually needs support from his teammates during the game.

he Egyptians need large quantities of stone. Before any military buildings are constructed, sources of stone have to be located and processed for building. Your first buildings will be for the stonecutters.

The residences are an exception because the need for free Settlers and carriers grows constantly. For this reason, my first building is always a medium residence. Check out the conditions of the land before you begin building. There could be dire consequences if the diggers are busy with the residence too long.

The adjustments for the ratio of carriers, diggers and builders plays an important role in the development of the game. For the fastest expansion of your colony, you should do a little experimenting here.
My first step: Building a medium residence. More carriers will be needed very soon.
